kaesthebluntedwonder Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 Holy shit, these photo series makros is posting has me dying. I don't get cable here, and once I move I think I would rather have internets than cable, and the place I might be getting is a wireless hot spot which equals free internet. The only reason I would want cable is, Daily Show, Chappelle Show, reruns of Ren and Stimpy (if they still show that even), and that's about it I think...maybe some movie channels would be good too. But really, as long as I can watch Blind Date, I'm set. Don't sleep on that show, best reality show ever, end of argument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 here's some kilo history for you.... When I was young... I had my TV limited to a facist level. I got 1/2 hour per day, that had to be approved in advance. There was no 'surfing' on the TV. See my folks never watched it so it wasn't ever on, unless there was somthing worth watching. There's an 'educational?' channel here that's like PBS only better. They used to have a 'Saturday Night At The Movies' program that plays all these old time greats. They'd play 2 classics a night with interviews inbetween. It's really some of the finest quality TV I've ever seen. AND.... I can get it still on the Rabbit Ears. TVO - for those who know.

mackfatsoe Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 i have to agree with horton, the commercials for the episode about the fat chick with the heart problem look ridiculously cornballish. and the only guy i know who watches House is also the only guy I know who religiously watches the O.C. connection? perhaps? maybe? ehh? whatever Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The commercials for House make it look really stupid, and I was making fun of them for a while before I watched it. Then I d/l'd an episode off tvtorrents.com and got hooked. It's a really, really funny show, the guy who plays Dr. House is brilliant. I mean when it comes down to it, it's got a lot of the hookiness that comes with television these days, and it's got a bit of the CSI syndrome where it deals more with being fast-paced instead of developing characters and the illnesses on the show are also pretty ridiculous/far-fetched. I mean, the TV dramas I normally like is shows like Homicide: Life on the Streets, Oz, Sopranos, old X-Files. But this is just good fun, there's always a few really laugh-out-loud parts in each episode, too. And again, the guy who plays Dr. House, Hugh Laurie, is fucking excellent. He used to be on that British comedy Black Adder, with Rowen Atkinson before he was Mr. Bean. And compared to the other total fucking crap on network television these days, this show is golden. And I've never watched, nor had the urge to watch, the O.C. Well, that's not true, I watched about 10 minutes of an episode once and thought it was stupid.
